I have tried it and I wish I enjoyed the gameplay. Tartarus is much less enjoyable in Portable for me. Though maybe I'm just a bit burnt out on p3 to begin with.

I dont know man, this is just a weird thing to say when you’re doing straight remakes of Persona 3 and 4 automaton-media.com/en/news/pers...

Persona 3 Reload devs haven't changed their minds about adding Portable’s female protagonist. "We have a mission to tackle new things" - AUTOMATON WEST

Persona series producer Kazuhisa Wada says Persona 3 Portable's female protagonist is definitely not coming back, but the team is working on "other new things."

Consume Me just dropped a day early AND is the subject of the most vulnerable thing I've ever put on the internet, so go check out the video and then go play the game!

Matt Horton @matt.bsky.social · 15d

Consume Me's biggest success is how it balances a goofy tone with real, tough shit. And it does that by giving its lead character (a fictional version of @qdork.bsky.social) a relatable problem:

The desire for control.
